rebranding.
Saturday, December 30, 200616 days of silence. a personal best, i must say. thank you dearest streamyx. i love the services that you offer. you're the best. seriously, you are. 1 gold ribbon for you.
30th december 2007. wow. in a few days, it'll be 2007. 2006 came and went. 2006, a year of..uhm..surprises. wait a sec. let's do this yearly round up thingy tomorrow. for now, i feel like blitching. (that's blog bitching, for those who don't know)
the past few weeks was like..hell. i'm bz with work every single day. need.air. is this how 'the real world' a.k.a feels like? if it is, well, i'm not looking forward for it. i can't be working 24/7. i can't.
ark. i'm supposed to be blitching. here goes.
a few months ago, i chose silverfishbooks as my 'subject matter'. you know, for my final year project. and for the fyp, i'm supposed to do 3 things.
1. tvc (major)
2. website (minor)
3. environmental media (minor. and it's 3d, in case, you've never heard of the term)
for this semester, i chose website. it's not the best website in the world, but it's a lot better that the original, don't you think? owh. it's not done yet. jan 4th's the dateline. and i 'tweaked' the target audience. 15years old-25years old. (only 2/53 people this age have ever heard of silverfishbooks) anyways, here's a screen capture.
what i'm trying to say here is that, when i went to silverfish books a couple of months ago, to ask questions regarding the company, (because that's what final year students do) the man behind the counter, was very... how should i put it in a polite way..uhm.. bad mannered. yeah. i don't want to go into details, but he treated me like i was..uhm.. some sort of a disease? like, i was there sent by the government to burn his books or something.
somebody who is sort of close to the man told me that the man is actually a nice person. that most probably he treated me the way he did because i was rude. owh well. everybody is entitled to have their own opinion. and my opinion is:
"dear sir behind the counter. i'm not rich. i don't live in bangsar. i don't go clubbing in telawi. my english isn't perfect. i don't own a bmw. i'm only an advertising student trying to get my bachelor's degree. must you be so rude? weren't you (no matter how old you are) once a student? please dear sir. we students are human beings as well."
p.s: dear sir behind the counter, your website sucks. but your anthologies kick ass, thank God for that. i don't owe you, you owe me cos i bought your books.
